I got to the 6 types of arguments on that site... All are stupid. The last one had Pascal's wager in it. I'm sorry. I have more than 3 active brain cells, which is pretty much all you need to show the stupidity of 'Pascal's Wager".

Every one of these arguments are a result of deciding on a result, then creating an agument to 'prove' it.

It reminds me of the story... One man, trying to show to another that mankind's knowledge is limited... draws a big circle with a smaller circle within: "The big circle, he explains... is all knowledge. The smaller circle is that which is know by man. God could be hiding anywhere in here between the circles..." What an Athiest would do, it to draw a third circle, smaller than the rest... inside both of the other circles and say "Well then, This is what YOU know. I'll accept you as an expert only on what's in THIS circle."
